Abstract

A parallel construction, particularly for a top-loading balance with elecmagnetic force compensation, has two essentially identical, preferably trapezoidal, movable guides in parallel horizontal planes. The guides are mounted permanently at one end and connected together by a movable rigid connecting element at the other end. The two guides are displaced relative to one another in their planes at right angles to their axis of rotation.
